Primitive People.

A correspondent Of the Leuant Herald,
writing from Selenitza, gives an account of
the manners and customs of the inhabitants
IT that Albanian village. They number
about one hundred and fifty souls, are (the
correspondent says) stepped to the lips in
superstition, and as improvident as they
are uncleanly. No person has more than
a single suit of clothes, which, if wet, must
dry on the body, for it is never taken off
except on washing days when the good
folks are said 10 remain unclothed while
their scaniv linen undergoes the highly
necessary process of being scrubbed with
pebbles in the village brook. Beds they
have not. beyond the sheep-skin. cloaks
which seldom leave their shoulders. They
sleep on the mud floors of their waited
huts, with cocks and hens roosting over
head in the thick smoke, which only es-
capes through the matched roof. The
sick have a hard time. A first principle in
the case of illness is that the patient cannot
possibly eat. Killing a fowl for soup Or
buying a bit Of wheat bread-Indian corn is
their chief foods undreamt-of extrava-
gance-not that the Selenitzans are eco
nomical. On the contrary they are con-
frmed spendtbrifts, especially the women,
who dote on brass trinkets and like yapi-

bles her incantations, pockets a few pias-

The Youngest Soldier Rebuffed.

Gen. Sherman is famous for his brusque
manners. He had never allowed the etfete
and luxuriant east to tame his wild western
nature. A few years ago he was at a big
meeting of the Grand Army of the Repub-
lie at st. Louis, when a young man ap-
preached him and said:
General, YOU don't know me, but I have
known you a long time. 1 suppose l was
the youngest soldier who served with you
during the war, and I want TO shake hands
with my old commander" Gen. Sherman
looked at the young man a moment and
said: MY friend, l suppose at least one
thousand men have claimed the honor of
being the youngest of my soldiers. How
old We're you when you entered the SER
vice." l was just 13," was the response.

The jury in the case of Capt Unger, who
killed August Bohle in New York and shipped
his mutilated bo.y in a runk to Baltimore, re-
turned a verdict of manslaughter in the first
degree Unger was sentenced to twenty years
imprisonment at lard labor.
Capt Unger, the confessed murderer of
Louis Bohle, whose headless body was cut up
and shipped in a trunk to Baltimore, has made
quite a favorable impression on the jury in
his trial, as well as on the spectators of the
court, by his plea of self-defense. Unger
made his own statement to the jury, illustrat-
ing in a highly-dramatic yet u%nassumirg
manner the particulars of his terrible encoun-

deathly stiffness of the courtroom was bro
